  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15-ounce) can corn, drained
  • 1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chilies, undrained
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 810 corn or flour tortillas
  • 1 (16-ounce) jar green enchilada sauce, vegan-friendly
  • Optional toppings: avocado, cilantro, vegan sour cream

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened.
  2. Add garlic and red bell pepper, cooking for another 3 minutes until tender.
  3. Mix in black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, and smoked paprika. Season to taste and cook for 5-7 minutes.
  4. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  5. Warm tortillas to make them pliable. Fill each with about 1/4 cup of black bean mixture and roll tightly, placing seam-side down in the baking dish.
  6. Pour green enchilada sauce over the rolled enchiladas, ensuring they are well coated.
  7. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until bubbly and heated through.

Notes

  • Warming tortillas prevents cracking when rolling.
  • Don’t overfill to avoid difficulty rolling and bursting.
  • Use quality green enchilada sauce for best flavor.
  • Customize by adding other vegetables.
  • Spice it up with cayenne or hot sauce.
